Once set up, we recommend navigating to Setup > Distributors. Select your precommit distributor from the Distributor dropdown and set 'Audit Status when Ordering' to 'Do Not mark Product as Carried'. This approach ensures that the store will not display the committed items as carried until an order is placed through an actual distributor or a manual audit is added.

Next, navigate to Setup > Products > Distributor Codes & Pricing and add codes for the items. We recommend using the last 6 digits of the UPC if you do not have internal codes you want to use. 

Now your representatives can connect the precommit Distributors to store/Customer records and place orders just as they do for any other Distributor. When they reach the processing stage of the order, they will set it to 'Do Not Process'. This action places the order within TurnLink without exporting it elsewhere:

You can then use the Reports > Orders reporting suite to report on your precommitments and present them to the applicable distributors.
